I would like to assign real bandwidth figures to eth1,2 and have the Kernel decide what interface to route traffic to depending on the statistical load on the interface. Is this a existing feature, how do I set it up ? if not could somebody who is smarter than me code it ? We have cheap broad band and several friends have the same config I have the only trick is to get them combined with a reasonable load sharing logic. Great stuff this Linux networking _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://ds9a.nl/2.4Routing/
